Maple Syrup Time


We went to see daughter L at her school on the weekend. I was pleased we were able to start moving some of her stuff back home. She will be done school at the end of April. It is a bittersweet time for her and her friends, knowing that they have to move on to the next phase of their lives as young adults. Some will continue on to do their master's degrees. Some will go off to different cities to start their careers, make new friends. We took her grocery shopping and I saw a lot of these maple syrup desserts. It's that time of year when they harvest the sap to make the syrup.  Well we did buy these, L chose the cookies, K chose the pie and I chose the tarts!  They are all delicious with that distinct maple flavour, I've tasted all three!

I buy maple syrup at Costco. Delicious!
My daughter intends to continue living on the mainland after graduating, because she says she wants to be her own person.

believe it or not I'm not a fan of maple syrup. I prefer strawberry or blueberry syrup

I have a major sweet tooth... They all look delicious. Definitely a transitional time in your daughter's life, I think it's wonderful that the two of you are so close.
